This is terrifying. A small sample of 100 or so. Like learning styles and hierarchy of needs. Rubbish science used to convict or set policy. As a psych grad, this stuff bugs me so very much. First year we learned stats.
- nonrandomstring 3y agoCalling for help already creates a psychological threshold to overcome fear. Fear of ridicule. Fear of blame. Fear of freezing, or making things worse. Imagine if your child had stopped breathing, what state of mind you might be in!! What kind of crazy things you might say... "It was all my fault" etc. Misuse of technology by fools with blind faith in it is an absolute monster here. It's getting worse and AI will only accelerate it. "Techno-spiritualism" may be a side of technofascism that we need to address, as we slip back into the age of trepanning to release evil spirits or witch-burning to cleanse souls. We're well into that degenerate phase of technological idolatry with regression into pseudo-science, cannibalism of institutions and basic human values. As monitoring technology destroys confidentiality and assumptions of good faith we have yet to see, for example, how many millions will die of cancers, infections or just commonly curable ailments, because they are too afraid to contact a doctor. It's nice to have to have some faith in technology. It's fatal to make it your God.
